This is an extract of your report:



This report is from rabbitears.info:



And, for comparison, this report is from the FCC DTV map site:



The reports are different because the database for the TVFool report has errors and the prediction software used is having a hard time calculating the signal strengths because you are inn a valley behind a hill.

The TVFool report only shows CBS on real channel 5, which would require a BIG antenna like the Winegard HD8200U. The rabbitears.info report shows CBS on 5 and also UHF real channel 25. The FCC report only shows UHF channel 25. IF you are able to get CBS on UHF channel 25, then you can use the Winegard HD7698P antenna. Either antenna will requite a preamp like the Antennas Direct Juice or the Channel Master 7777HD/Amplify which has HI and LO gain settings.
